Scenariot. And what does Chat GPT have to do with it?

Cycle: Architectural Animation

Video: WHAT IF Creative Studio
Project: Expo 2020 Dubai — Architecture (Cannes Gold Winner)
Geo: Dubai, AE


To write a script, you need to analyze the client’s brief and understand the purpose of the video. The key question you should ask yourself at the start is: "Who is the final consumer of the video?" There can be many variations and details, but I would highlight two main categories:

  1. Buyers of square meters (focus on the graphic part)
  2. Investors and various architectural councils (focus on numbers and project structure)

What the script should display:

1.The overall concept of the video
2.Total duration
3.Stylistics
4.Frame-by-frame description of camera flights:
  • Description and type of flight (3D, video, editing, etc.)
  • Duration of the flight (in seconds and frames)
  • Shot (long, medium, close-up)
  • The nature of the camera movement
  • Key objects of the flight
  • Time of day and season
  • Infographics (captions, technical and economic indicators, etc.)
5.Sound accompaniment:
  • Voice-over
  • Music

Even if you have never written scripts before, it will be especially useful for you to use Chat GPT. Its latest version, with a well-composed prompt, can produce a quality structure that can always be manually edited. To create a request, you can give it input from the list above with a brief description of the project. Try it — it’s quite an engaging activity.

PS You’ll understand why scriptwriters around the world are organizing boycotts)
